THE SEIZED SEALERS.
mr. Bsyard Explains why they were not
Released-A Canadian View.

mr. Bayard Explains why they were not
Released-A Canadian View.
NEW YORK, October ga Washing
ton special to the Herald says: Secretary
Bayard was seen at late hour last night
in regard to the alleged apology to Canada
in regard to the alleged delay in releasing
the seized Canadian sealers.
I'm February last the President of the
United States ordered the release of those
British vessels seized in Behring's Sea for
alleged violation Of the laws of the United
States regulating the capture of fur seals.
The fact that no had so ordered the release
was at once communicated to the British
Minister at the capital, who, under the
instructions of his Government had inquired
concerning the matter within a week
whether these vessels had been released in
accordance with the Presidents order.
On inquiry at the Department of
Justice it was found to the
surprise Of the Secretary Of State, that
owing TO some misapprehensiOn or mis-
conception of the Presidents orders the
vessels had not been released. Thereupon
the Department of Justice Immediately
renewed the orders for their release, and
the fact of this renewal of the orders of
the President made in February last was
at once communicated TO the British Min
lister, with expressions of regret that the
first orders had not been promptly obeyed.
No other apology or communication
whatever to the British government or to
Canada has ever been made upon this
subject.
An Ottowa special to the same paper
saws: Those who have watched the con-
troversy since the first seizures in August
of last year, the Minister OF Justice thinks,
cannot but have been struck with the vast
amount oflcontra1iction on the part of the
United States authorities. Long after the
intelligence of the seizure of the Carolina,
the Onward and the Thornton
had reached the Canadian govern
ment the Washington authorities
according to the published correspondence
were waiting Tor authentic information
from Alaska. Repeated demands" were
made by the Imperial Government for
statement of the intention of the United
States Government, and finally, in Febru
ary of that year, came the order of the At
torney General for the release of the vessels.
How the order of the Government was dis
obeyed by the officials of the United States
Government in Alaska has been already
published in the American press. Mr..
Bayard's attention has, during the inter-
vening months, been called to the conduct
of the Alaska officials, and although in an
interview with newspaper correspondent
in Washington be denied that it was posi-
bic for United States officer not TO carry
out the wishes and orders of the Govern
ment, evidently he had had contrary
view forced upon his mind"

press on the Chesapeake & Ohio R. R., six
coaches, going West met with an accident
twelve miles below this city, in which
twenty-six passengers were more or less
injured. None were killed outright, bat
several seriously injured.
The accident was caused by defective
switch, over which the engine, baggage,
express and mail cars passed unharmed,
but the three middle coaches, all
well filled with passengers,
were thrown from the track, two
OF which were burned completely over,
one turning twice. 1t is impossible at
this time to learn the names of the injured.

been great. No blame is attached to the

Effort to Prosecute Them In the Federal

CHICAGO, October 20.-An lndianapO-
lis, Ind, special says: An effort is being
made by Gov. Gray and others, to induce
United States District Attorney to prose-
cute in the Federal Court the band Of
night marauders in southwestern Indiana,
known as white caps In the counties
where they operate they have control Of all

white caps, and the District Attorney is
now preparing to begin an investigation
into the depredations of the outlaws, with
a view to institute prosecutions.

Yes, think there will be a healthy in

part of the agriculturists to come into
the organization. In the smaller towns
in the country, the farmers are joining the
assemblies that are already in existence
and are organizing new ones, made up al
most entirely Of farmers. This is the kind
